Cant Out Run the Noise
The thoughts keep on coming
Frantic words run through my mind
I know you’ve tried to tell me
It’s hard to hear with a troubled mind
You were standing there beside me
I was a million miles away
They say you hurt the ones you love
I can’t forgive away my pain
I want to give in
Put it all to an end
Bury the words deep - down inside
I try to move on
Hoping I’ll be strong
Harsh words blistering my mind
Down on my knees
Begging you please
Praying for a life I can enjoy
Cause I can’t outrun the noise
I can’t out run the noise
Waking up this morning
Thinking this day will be fine
I down a cup of coffee
**** starts flowing through my mind
I try to quiet the manic sounds
Fight to blind the memories
But the voices just get louder
I can’t out run my history
I want to give in
Put it all to an end
Bury the words deep - down inside
I try to move on
Hoping I’ll be strong
Harsh words blistering my mind
Down on my knees
Begging you please
Praying for a life I can enjoy
Cause I can’t outrun the noise
I can’t out run the noise
